In Blast ‘Em Bunnies you are a cute, cartoon bunny called Bang Bang who must defend your rabbit burrow against an onslaught of evil bunnies. These bunnies have captured your offspring and one of them, the evil Throatslitter, is holding them hostage.

Grab your carrot rifle, watermelon machine gun, turnip mortar, or runner bean laser and take them down! Spend those coins you shoot on new weapons, upgrades, and ammo including sticky raspberries, heat seeking chili seeds, shredding leek lasers, or bouncing, splitting, exploding pumpkin bombs! How long can you survive?

This is our first HD console release and we’ve strived to craft a fun, friendly, and frenetic first-person shooter for the family. Simply pick up your controller and get blasting bunnies! We’ve been beavering away for a while now making Blast ‘Em Bunnies awesome for PlayStation owners by supporting cross buy, cross save, and optional motion controls allowing you to point and shoot. We are also currently experimenting with possible future PlayStation VR add on content.

The game features four different weapons to purchase and upgrade and 16 different bullet types to combine with your chosen weapon for maximum tactical effect. By shooting coins you can save up to purchase weapons, upgrades, ammo, or health upgrades — allowing you to survive longer against the ferocious evil bunnies. Should you save up for the runner bean laser or go straight for new heat seeking parsnip ammo? Tough decisions abound!

With more than 50 medals to be unlocked and missions which refresh either on completion or daily, you’ll always be faced with a challenge. If you’re looking for harder difficulties and modes you can take on Survival mode in Easy, Normal, Hard, and Very Hard (where you need to survive for as long as you can) or try out Slaughter mode in Normal, Super, or Ultra difficulties (where you must survive for 2 minutes with weaker weapons and health depending on difficulty).

Each battle takes place in an arena with bunnies spawning to try to bring you down. Runners, Walkers, Burrowers, Grenadiers, Blockers, and Bosses all conspire to defeat you. While the Throatslitter macabrely tries to dispatch your young from a distance and the Golden Bunny evades your bullets lest you unleash Frenzy Mode.

You can also customize your experience with purchasable add-on content from PlayStation Store. There are 5 new arena and matching skin packs which cover Ninjas, Zombies, Urban Army, Clowns, and Luchadores. Add on content can be purchased individually or in bundles with bundles giving a deeper discount on pricing. Be sure to check out PlayStation Store closer to release for all of the great additional content! The base game will be $4.99.

We’re so excited to finally launch our first PS4 game and love all of the great graphical additions we brought to it. We’re eager to answer any questions you have about the game so just pop them in the comments and we’ll get right on it.

Please Note: Some images above are taken from add-on content, which is sold separately.

We’re happy to bring you information about escapeVektor, a new game coming to PlayStation Vita from Australian independent developer Nnooo.

Vektor is trapped inside your CPU and needs your help to escape! Each node (level) consists of a series of interconnected lines which form cells. These are claimed as Vektor moves along them. Claiming all of the cells in a node unlocks the exit to the next node, bringing Vektor closer to his escape. Watch out because the CPU sets up obstacles and sends out its army to destroy him.

There are four main abilities to unlock and use in escapeVektor.

Detonate

This ability allows you to destroy enemies which get too close. If you can escape a node without detonating you’ll earn a star! Getting stars on all the nodes is going to be tricky.

Boost

Boost allows you to travel much faster than normal for short periods of time.

Super Boost

This is a much faster version of boost which drains boost energy even quicker!!

Boostenate

Boostenate is Vektor’s most powerful ability which not only invincible for short periods of time you also travel at Super Boost speeds while doing so! Now those pesky enemies are no longer a threat…

Vektor will also periodically upgrade one of your abilities making your detonate radius larger, allow you to hold more detonation pips or Boost energy, make Super Boost faster or allow Boostenate to drain boost energy and detonation pips slower.

There are 150 nodes in escapeVektor spread across 27 zones (worlds). Some nodes have second exits in them which open up different routes through the game. These secret exits and routes will allow you to explore more of Vektor’s world and uncover shortcuts to other nodes in the game.

There are many different enemy types to watch out for: Patrols, Hunters, Interceptors, Locusts and Munchers are all hiding away in nodes trying to hinder Vektor’s escape. For example, Patrols will stick to their patrol route. Learn it and you can easily avoid them. Munchers are super fast and will consume lines you’ve colored, changing them back to normal!

There are also a variety of objects you can interact with. Electric Fences will destroy you
and enemies on contact so try to work out how to turn them off before you pass through
them or try to trick an enemy into passing through one which is turned on! Cannons will ﬁre
bullets out in patterns so dodge them when you can.

Every node in the game has a leaderboard allowing you to compete with other players. You can ﬁlter this by:

Location – Players nearby via ‘near’

Competitors – Players from across the world who are closest to you in score

Friends – Your friends

Every time you set a personal best on a node you’ll earn a Wildcard. Use a Wildcard before starting a node and if you complete that node you’ll double your score! These doubled scores will also be uploaded to the leaderboards.

Each time you earn a Wildcard the game will also drop a ‘near’ Wildcard gift in your current location allowing people who are nearby to earn more Wildcards in the game.

At Nnooo we like to try to take advantage of the unique features of each platform we work
on. With the PS Vita version of the game, we added the following features to enhance the experience:

‘near’ location based leaderboards – So you can compete with those around you

3G data connection – So you can drop gifts and update the leaderboards when out and about

Enhanced camera controls using the Gyro sensor – Just tilt your PlayStation Vita up/down or left/right to see more of the gameworld

Touch controls – Tap a node to select it and tap it again to enter it. Drag to pan around the zone and node select screens to explore the map quickly and easily

Live area updates as you play – The live area of escapeVektor keeps a tally of your medals, stars, score, Vektor’s version level and the last few bits of story. This way if you’ve not played in a while you can see the where you were without having to boot the game!

60 frames per second gameplay! With the great power of the PlayStation Vita this version of escapeVektor is the smoothest, slickest version yet!

escapeVektor launches on PlayStation Vita on January 22nd for $9.99. PlayStation Plus subscribers will get a 20% discount until February 5th.
